10 Proposed Guillermo Del Toro Movies That We Really Hope Get Made

6) Pet Sematary

Stephen King’s Pet Sematary is one of his most disturbing and haunting novels – he apparently tried to hide it from his publishers after writing it, fearing he had gone too far. The book has been adapted before back in the 70s, but del Toro was linked to a new version a few years ago.

If you don’t know, the story follows a family who move near to a haunted pet cemetery where it is said that the animals therein come back from the dead. When tragedy strikes, however, things get even freakier…

The project has swapped directors a few times since it was first mooted in 2010 – it has also missed its intended release date of the book’s thirtieth anniversary in 2013 – but del Toro is still eager to do the film, even joking “I would kill to make it.”

Let’s hope he gets the chance to – before he does something he might regret…
